Congrats with your new combo! Heard them at a store recently and they sound magical together. I only wish I could affort them...

 

[matengawhat]

well everything i've read about them says they are terrific so hoping thay are really that good - never owned a pair of grados so fingers crossed i'll like the sound and once sold the other bits not quite such a massive outlay

Full and detailed review expected with comparisons to the Fubar4 and Little Dot

 

[matengawhat]

well i have been told that graham slee and grados work really well together - i will def be keeping the fubar as need them for the dacs, i will be letting the little dot go unless I feel its better than the solo which only a direct comparion will prove - will let you know my progress.....

Nice...

I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts - both immediate and after a nice burn in.

they arrived - currently sat under my desk and can't do anything with them yet also prob good thing as still working off last night hangover! - got the phones which are pretty heavy, they come with a 15 feet headphone extension cable and an adaptor which will come in useful - surprised they only come in a cardboard box with nice cut foam inserts - apparantly the wooden presentation box is an optional extra at this price you thoughts it be standard!!!

Also got the Graham Slee Solo, PSU1 and the Graham Slee Cusat 50 Stereo Interconnect - not got any of it out yet as keeping headdown at work - as long as when i get it out its all mint as promised as is an ex display setup I think I got a great deal!

how they sound to follow..........

ok just had about 15mins with them and thoughts so far - they are quite big - maybe i have a small head as even with the headband at its smallest i feel they are a little loose but they are very comfortable and cover the whole of my ears with ease - the sound is like wow - only tried them with my fubar iv so far not the solo but the bass is fantastic deep and tunefull, treble so clear and the soundstage is just massive - i have an evening planned tomorrow with them
